If you have opted-in to the Copilot experience, we are excited to announce that Microsoft has released Copilot Pages as default enabled. It comes with admin controls should you need to control the experience differently within your tenant. When this will happen:General Availability (Worldwide) to Microsoft 365 Copilot subscribers: We will begin rolling out today, September 16, 2024, and expect to complete by early October 2024 (previously late September). How this will affect your organization:Today we announced Copilot Pages, a first step in our new design system for knowledge work. Copilot Pages is a dynamic, persistent canvas in Copilot chat designed for multi-player collaboration. With Pages, you can turn insightful Copilot responses into something durable with a side-by-side page that you can edit and, when ready, share with your team to collaborate. Copilot Pages starts rolling out today for Microsoft 365 Copilot users and soon for Microsoft 365 subscribers. If you have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license, you and your team can work with Copilot directly on the page when you open it in full screen. In a multiplayer approach, prompt Copilot together as a team to improve and expand responses, learn from each other's prompts, and organize complex information. With Copilot Pages, human to AI interactions come to life. We see collaborative prompting as the next great step forward in evolving Copilot from an individual, point-in-time exercise into a collaborative experience. You can return to pages at any time by clicking the link in chat or the Open Page icon at the top of the associated Copilot session. Additionally, users can view all their pages in the Pages module in Microsoft365.com where they can also collaborate with others. Microsoft 365 Copilot users can use Copilot to refine the content on a page. Created pages are stored in a user-owned SharePoint Embedded container. The container is lifetime-managed with the user account, so like OneDrive, the container and its content are deleted when the user account is deleted. What you need to do to prepare:There is nothing you need to do to prepare, the feature is automatically enabled. If you wish to change the configuration of the feature, there are three ways to consider based on your needs. You can (1) assign or unassign Copilot licenses to users that you do or do not want to have this experience, (2) use a Cloud Policy setting to prevent users from creating new Copilot pages in Copilot Business Chat, and/or (3) use Conditional Access or Information Barriers policies to block certain users from accessing Copilot pages as needed. Instructions for using the Cloud Policy to enable/disable Copilot pages in your tenant repeated here for ready reference:
In case you create a new policy configuration or change the configuration for an existing policy, there can be a delay in the change being reflected as described below:
